Letter: Maura Healey has the skills to be AG

The Office of the Massachusetts Attorney General touches the lives of every resident of the commonwealth by enforcing and prosecuting the Massachusetts general laws. Maura Healey is the clear choice as attorney general, by her experience in serving as an assistant attorney general in that office for several years in leadership roles; and her background as a litigator in the private sector.

As a prosecutor and the architect in the landmark Defense of Marriage Act challenge, while serving as an assistant attorney general, Healey has defined the Office on a national level.

Please join me in supporting Maura Healey for attorney general in the Democratic primary.
